  • Publication number: 20240148429
    Abstract: A method for determining motional branch current in an ultrasonic transducer of an ultrasonic surgical device over multiple frequencies of a transducer drive signal. The method may comprise, at each of a plurality of frequencies of the transducer drive signal, oversampling a current and voltage of the transducer drive signal, receiving, by a processor, the current and voltage samples, and determining, by the processor, the motional branch current based on the current and voltage samples, a static capacitance of the ultrasonic transducer and the frequency of the transducer drive signal.

  • Patent number: 7558393
    Abstract: A system and method of producing an output sound field that is representative of an input sound field compatible with both existing prior art sound reproduction systems, for example ITU 5.1/6.1, and with a three-dimensional reproduction system unique to this disclosure. One embodiment of the disclosed system is comprised of a microphone array, an encoder, a decoder, and a plurality of speakers, some of which may not be located in the plane of the listener. A further embodiment discloses matrices to encode and decode the signals representative of the input and output sound fields respectively.
